Vincent Kompany has recalled a 'dull' trip to Old Trafford in which he knew Manchester City were about to topple Manchester United's dominance.
Kompany joined City in the summer of 2008, enduring several campaigns in which the Blues were inferior to their Manchester rivals before eventually winning their first Premier League title in the 2011/2012 season.
